Abstract :
Background: Dental health of children with
special needs, mental retardation is more in need than
children in general. Children with special needs have
various limitations that exist on them, such as not being
able to clean their own cavities, so they need the help of
parents and teachers to guide them. Children who are
basically easily bored or bored, the situation to overcome
this problem is the required media or a method in the form
of a tell show do model in the form of learning videos,
understanding the content of the material so that changes
in brushing behavior are obtained. Objective: to present
the tell show do model as a learning medium to improve
the brushing skills of mentally retarded children.
Methods: Research and Development (R&D) and the trial
model used a quasi-experimental method (pre and post test
with control group design). Sampling using the Lemeshow
formula obtained 17 samples of children per group based
on the inclusion criteria. The intervention group to
measure the knowledge, attitudes, actions of parents and
teachers, action index and debris was then given education
using the tell show do model for 10 days. The control group
to measure the knowledge, attitudes, actions of teachers
and parents, action index and children's debris was then
given education using flipchart media and dental
phantoms. Result: Tell show do is feasible as a medium for
learning about brushing teeth (p=0.000). This
implementation model is effective in increasing the
knowledge of teachers and parents (p = 0.021), attitudes of
teachers and parents (p = 0.019), and teeth brushing skills
of teachers and parents (p = 0.025). The ability to brush
the teeth of mentally retarded children (p = 0.000) and
reduce the debris index of mentally retarded children (p =
0.040) compared to the control group. Conclusion: Tell
Show Do is effective as a learning medium to improve
brushing skills in mentally retarded children.
